Chapter 36: The Beta Female Supporting Character in the ABO "Wife-Chasing Hell" Scene (5)
A light rain was falling from the sky, and there were few pedestrians on the road.
The rainwater here is slightly corrosive, and even though the new humans' physiques have evolved, they still feel a slight pain from the corrosion.
Mu Liuyun walked dejectedly in the rain. His once bright and dazzling golden hair was now soaked and hung limply on his head. His clothes were also completely drenched. The slight corrosiveness of the rainwater made the young master's hand-embroidered shirt turn slightly yellow. At this moment, Mu Liuyun was dejected and lonely, as fragile as a piece of broken glass that had been carelessly glued back together.
What are you doing?
When Ouyang Qian saw that the person he had been searching for was standing in the rain, he was furious. He ran over, grabbed Mu Liuyun, and questioned her sharply.
Mu Liuyun didn't speak, but just looked up at him. This glance made Ouyang Qian feel a little dazed. In the past, Mu Liuyun's gaze towards him was filled with passionate feelings and ardent love. Now, all that remained was a detached indifference that was greater than death itself. What happened to him?
"Mu Liuyun, can you please stop being so willful? Do you know your parents and teachers are looking for you? What if something happens to you? You're an adult, can you stop acting like a child?"
See? It's the same old story. No matter what Mu Liuyun does, in Ouyang Qian's eyes, it's all like a child's behavior. He always treats Mu Liuyun's affections as childish and never takes his feelings seriously. Fine, then he won't like him anymore.
He, Mu Liuyun, also has his own pride.
"I will go back by myself, Ouyang Qian. Since you don't like me, don't do things that make me misunderstand. Let's not see each other again."
Warm tears mingled with cold rainwater as they flowed down, carrying away the last trace of lingering affection in Mu Liuyun's heart.
He followed in Ouyang Qian's footsteps, devoting a year to living entirely around him, like a sunflower in a book, his gaze always following the sun.
But now he's tired. Human hearts are made of flesh and blood, not machines or stones. He can't stand the cold attitude day after day, the boredom, the ridicule, the mockery. So let this damned thrill disappear into the dust with today's rain.
For some reason, Ouyang Qian felt a little depressed. He attributed it to the gloom brought on by the rainy day. Watching the person walk further and further away, and seeing that the Mu family's car had already reached that person's side, he figured there was no longer any danger.
He shook his wet hair and prepared to take a shower.
The next day after class, Ouyang Qian didn't see that familiar figure at the door, and there were also his friends teasing him.
"Ouyang, you scared away that cute little omega."
"Ouyang, you're so heartless. That omega has been waiting for you almost every day for the past year, and now look what's happened, he's given up."
Ouyang Qian felt annoyed. If he wasn't going to come, he wasn't going to come. Hadn't he always hoped that Ouyang Qian would give up? So what was there for him to be unhappy about?
Never mind, he got caught in the rain yesterday, I'll go see him today.
When Ouyang Qian arrived at the Mu residence, the butler told him that Mu Liuyun was not home. He said he wanted to go out for a walk, so he took a week off from school and went on a trip.
Ouyang Qian twitched the corners of his mouth, but there was no smile on his face.
Having acted so affectionately, aren't you living a much more carefree life now?
As for Mu Liuyun, he didn't just go out to have fun. He went to the Federation's main planet to see what kind of person Ouyang Qian's beloved was.
Meanwhile, Luo Shu shone brightly in pharmaceutics and was highly regarded by Professor Li Guangzhao, successfully entering the biomimicry laboratory, and her studies were going very smoothly.
At this moment, Luo Shu was in a pharmacy laboratory. Almost all the professors of pharmacy were there, and they were all staring intently at the vial of medicine in Luo Shu's hand.
The pale green liquid flowed slowly in the test tube, seemingly alive, which was mesmerizing.
"Luo Shu, is this the result of your research after so long?"
Professor Wen Yuqing spoke first, her expression a mixture of curiosity, excitement, and a hint of doubt.
The effects of this medicine were so astonishing that she could hardly believe it.
The other professors also stared at Luo Shu expectantly, still shocked even though they already knew the effects of the potion.
"Yes, teachers, the Pharmacists Association has approved the tests, and the clinical trials have been successful. From now on, we will usher in a new era. And we, all of you here, will be forever remembered in history books and engraved in the torrent of history."
Luo Shu's words were quite exaggerated. If any other strangers had heard them, they would have thought that this young child was making things up. However, the people around her were her teachers who had taught her for a year. How could they not know her abilities?
Luo Shu seemed to be born for pharmacy, mastering the existing potion formulas in just two months and being able to accurately prepare all known potions.
Her talent was simply terrifying; calling her a prodigy wouldn't be an exaggeration. She mastered in just six months what others would spend a lifetime learning.
Moreover, they even developed a potion to stimulate and increase mental power. What terrifying genius this is, making those of them who have spent their whole lives researching potions feel somewhat ashamed.
"Alright, I'll send a message to the Commander-in-Chief right away. He'll probably see you soon, Luo Shu. You need to be prepared."
As a level 10 pharmacist and Luo Shu's teacher, this ordinary old man with gray hair is qualified to directly contact His Excellency the Commander.
"Teacher, I'm ready."
Luo Shu still looked the same as when they first met, wearing a snow-white shirt and black trousers. Her simple attire couldn't hide her elegance. A year of study had made her more composed, like a pearl that, after being polished, shone even brighter.
As expected, the Commander-in-Chief invited Luo Shu for a meeting and attached great importance to this matter, just as anticipated.
This is also one of the reasons why Luo Shu prefers the federal environment.
The Empire still uses the cabinet system and retains the royal family, but only as a symbol. The Federation, on the other hand, uses a citizen representative system. Relatively speaking, ordinary people in the Federation have better welfare benefits and less class stratification.
The empire, on the other hand, treats omegas and alphas exceptionally well. The aristocratic class monopolizes the economy, yet it is a sacred place in the hearts of many alphas.
I can only say that they each have their own merits.
However, what Luo Shu is going to do will definitely overthrow the interests of many noble classes. If this were implemented in the Empire, it would inevitably face many obstacles, but it would be different in the Federation.
The Federation Commander was a very kind old man. He was also a beta who never married and dedicated his youth to the Federation. He was a respectable leader.
"This must be Luo Shu. She is indeed a young prodigy. This experimental project was led by Luo Shu, right?"
The commander-in-chief had a kind smile, but his question was somewhat sharp.
"Yes, but this achievement was developed by me and my teachers, it's not my achievement alone."
Luo Shu's expression was completely open and honest. She was already very beautiful, and today she was dressed up even more beautifully.
She changed out of her usual white shirt and black pants and put on a light blue women's suit, which made her waist look even slimmer and her legs even longer. Her crystal-clear white skin was wrapped in the blue clothes, like a piece of translucent snow. Her lips were colored and her hair was silver. She was breathtakingly beautiful.
Even when facing a commander-in-chief with immense authority and an imposing presence, she remained calm and composed. For a girl not even twenty years old to be able to do this is truly admirable.
The commander-in-chief secretly admired her, but the questions he asked were increasingly pointed. It was clear that the commander-in-chief had a deep understanding of this subject, and the questions he asked were not superficial. It was also evident that they attached great importance to Luo Shu's research results.
"Yes, we have already completed clinical trials. During the clinical trials, 68 out of 100 volunteer patients successfully activated their mental power. Another 32, who had already developed the lowest level of mental power, saw their mental power slowly increase to level C after taking the medication."
Luo Shu paused for a moment, then continued, "Furthermore, our team discovered that the better one's physical condition, the easier it is to stimulate mental power, and the faster the level of mental power increases. Among our volunteers, there are 30 alphas, 20 omegas, and 50 betas, so this data applies to everyone, and this medicine is effective for everyone."
The commander opposite him changed his expression slightly after hearing this, but his fingers trembled slightly. In front of him was a document that could change the times. He looked at Luo Shu with increasingly kind eyes.
"Does Luo Shu have any plans to immigrate to the Federation? Your research professors are all here. Moreover, the Federation is an open, inclusive, and free country, and we welcome Luo Shu to settle here."
The commander's voice even sounded somewhat playful at this moment, after all, who wouldn't want to gather talented people to their own territory?
Luo Shu was also considering this matter. Her mother died early, and her father died when she was young, trying to save Ouyang Qian's father. The Ouyang family took her in and raised her.
It wasn't as an adopted daughter; it was clearly stated that Luo Shu was being raised to repay her father, and that he would raise her until she reached adulthood, so she shouldn't covet anything that didn't belong to her.
As the younger generation of the Ouyang family with the highest spiritual strength, Luo Shu was not like Ouyang Qian's playmate, but more like his maid.
However, the Ouyang family did not feel that there was anything wrong with it. Luo Shu's father was their servant, and Luo Shu was also their servant. They had already been very kind to support Luo Shu's schooling. What could Luo Shu possibly complain about?
As for anything else, Luo Shu shouldn't have any expectations. As for bringing Luo Shu back to the Ouyang family, it was just an investment by the nobles. Luo Shu was born exquisite and beautiful when she was young, and she was very likely to differentiate into an omega. However, she differentiated into a beta, which greatly disappointed the Ouyang family. As soon as she came of age, they made Luo Shu move out.
Therefore, it's fair to say that Luo Shu has virtually no feelings for the Ouyang family.
Presumably, His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief did this intentionally after investigating Luo Shu. Luo Shu is not angry, after all, her research results are indeed extremely important, and conducting a background check is reasonable.
"Then I'll trouble you. After I immigrate, will it be possible to register my household registration at the university?"
After a moment's thought, Luo Shu agreed to the immigration proposal.
His Excellency the Commander was clearly pleased with Luo Shu's actions and instructed his secretary to handle the matter immediately. He then said to Luo Shu, "Please feel free to make any further requests, Luo Shu. We will try our best to fulfill them. Don't be shy."
Luo Shu's expression shifted slightly, as if she was somewhat tempted. She said, "If that's the case, I have a few requests."
His Excellency the Commander's expression shifted slightly, but he made no move. Professor Wang, sitting next to him, frowned slightly, his eyes flickering, but he didn't say anything to stop him. He chose to trust his student.
"First, after I registered the patent for this drug (drugs must be registered to protect intellectual property rights), I chose to make the patent freely available, hoping that the federal government will include this drug in the junior pharmacist assessment. The formulation of this drug is not difficult."
"Secondly, this drug was developed by me and several professors of pharmacy. I wanted everyone to be listed in the author's name, as it is our shared honor."
"Third, I hope this drug will be regulated by the federal government and priced lower so that everyone can afford it."
Luo Shu's voice rang out in the spacious office, clear and crisp, just like her, like a person sculpted from jade and snow, cool and penetrating the heart.
Professor Wang listened to his proudest student say these words, his eyes glistening with tears. His student possessed a noble and intelligent soul, and he was proud of her.
His Excellency the Commander was also quite moved. Before Luo Shu made her request, he was worried that if she made some difficult demands, it might be a bit troublesome.
Who would have thought that such a slender girl would be thinking of the common people? Having her is a blessing for the Alliance!
The commander's voice grew even gentler: "Alright, Luo, rest assured, our alliance will definitely carry out these three requests."
Luo Shu smiled slightly, her smile carefree and unrestrained, radiating the unique vigor of youth. The commander looked at her as if he were seeing a dazzling sun slowly rising.
When the youth are strong, the nation is strong.
On the way back to school with Professor Wang, Luo Shu's AI kept vibrating, with messages popping up constantly.
She turned on her smart device and saw that Professor Li Guangzhao had called. There was nothing she could do; the old man had a rather irritable temper, so she had no choice but to answer.
Luo Shu didn't switch to single-player mode; she answered the call directly.
"Where did you go? Weren't you supposed to be in the lab today? Look at you, always going to the pharmacy department. You're majoring in this course, and if you don't come back soon, I'm going to deduct all your credits."
Professor Li Guangzhao was no longer the refined and easygoing man he had been when they first met; instead, he was now irritable and angry. Several lab technicians standing next to him shrank back and trembled, none daring to provoke Professor Li's brow.
"Tsk tsk, Professor Li, with your volatile temper, how can Luo Shu, a young girl, stand it? If you ask me, Luo Shu is better off staying in our pharmacy department. Besides, Luo Shu is already pregnant... cough cough cough."
Professor Wang almost let slip the secret, but he couldn't hide the smile on his face, which made Professor Li even more annoyed.
That's the downside of having a genius student; other subjects tend to poach them.
"Come back soon." Professor Li emphasized to Luo Shu again, then casually said to Professor Wang beside him, "Luo Shu's major is biology."
Professor Wang's smug expression vanished instantly, replaced by a resentful look as he glanced at his student. The pillar of pharmacy, majoring in biology—this was too much of a slap in the face.
Luo Shu was already used to such gazes. She looked at the bustling street outside and the increasingly bright sunshine, and her mood became more and more wonderful.
